This coin is our own interpretation of the painting “The Birth of Venus,”
created in 1879 by French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau. Its composition
is reminiscent of “The Birth of Venus” by Sandro Botticelli. The painting
portrays not the moment of the actual birth of Venus, but how she flows in a
shell from the sea to the city of Paphos in Cyprus. Many people consider
Venus the epitome of the Classical Greek and Roman ideal of the female form
and beauty, on par with Venus de Milo. Thanks to the high relief technique, the
coin beautifully renders everything depicted in this painting.
A magnificent coin dedicated to Venus as the embodiment of female beauty
and grace!
